Simplify n + -2 to n - 2

(n - 2)(n + 4) = 27

Expand

n^2 + 4n - 2n - 8 = 27

Simplify n^2 + 4n - 2n - 8 to n^2 + 2n - 8

n^2 + 2n - 8 = 27

Move all terms to one side

n^2 + 2n - 8 - 27 = 0

Simplify n^2 + 2n - 8 - 27 to n^2 + 2n - 35

n^2 + 2n - 35 = 0

Factor n^2 + 2n - 35

(n - 5)(n + 7) = 0

Solve for n

<u>n = 5, -7</u>

Answer:

9 and 3

Step-by-step explanation:

27/3=9

There are 2 different ways to solve this equation.

Side note: subtracting a negative (4- -3) turns the equation into addition (4+3) and adding a negative (4+ -3) turns the equation into subtraction (4-3)

So the original equation: (n + -2)x(n - -4)=27

Turns into this: (n-2)x(n+4)=27

Way 1: (11-2)x(-1+4)=27

9x3=27

Way 2: (5-2)x(5+4)=27

3x9=27

Hope this helped! :)

Factor of 2x4+22x3+60x
horsena [70]

Remark

I don't know exactly what level you are in, but the obvious factors are

y = 2x*(x^3 + 11x + 30)


This gives one more factor somewhere around x = -11.3 . Notice that the minimum is around - 3000 or so. I don't think anyone is going to try and take this any further. My calculator figures out cubics and gives an answer of -11.23. There are two other roots but they are a complex pair.


Answer

factor 1: 2x

factor 2: x^3 + 11x^2 + 30

19. Luggage on a certain airline is limited to 2 pieces per person.
Mama L [17]

Answer: The second piece can weigh 256 pounds at most.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to write an inequality with the information given:

The sum of the weight of each piece of Luggage must be less or equal to 581 pounds:

x + 325 ≤581

Where x is the second piece's weight.

Solving for x:

x ≤581 -325

x ≤ 256

The second piece can weigh 256 pounds at most.

Feel free to ask for more if needed or if you did not understand something.
